To what games Have You Been Addicted From Early Childhood On? I'll list some of my games here I literally spent hours on:

SimCity
SimCity 2000
Populous II
Theme Park
Championship Manager 4
WarCraft I & II
Command & Conquer
...
and non-sims:
Streets of Rage 2
Indiana Jones & Fate of Atlantis
Rise of the Dragon
Tetris
Micro Machines 2
Sega Worldwide Soccer
...

When I got older I still liked games but they couldn't hold my attention as long anymore...

Nice list...

 

 

Sim City for sure...

 

Right now I am hooked on Oblivion....it is like crack. I find myself thinking about it at work. It is not a perfect game but man, is it fun. I think it could be my favorite 360 game so far, edging out Gears.

 

 

Questron for the C-64...played 18 hours straight when I was a kid...

I don't really get addicted to single-player games--I play through them once every year or two if I really like it.  But the multiplayer is where the addition sets in.  For me:

Unreal Championship - xbox - my first online console game, and I played it three hours a day for months--sometimes longer. 

Return to Castle Wolfenstein - xbox - my second online console game.  Such a rich array of play types, maps, and weapons.  Loved it, played it too much.

Counter Strike - xbox - my third online console game.  This is a multiplayer exclusive--no single player campaign.  Just a lot of fun and I got pretty good.

GoW - 360 - the most fun I've ever had in multiplayer.  Bar none.  Nuff said.  Unless we're out of town, I play it on Thurs, Fri, and Sat nights from around midnight to 4am while eating chocolate covered coffee beans and drinking tea.
